Description

Changelog generator based on milestone or tags for github.

Installation

Using pip

pip install loghub

Using conda

conda install loghub -c conda-forge

or

conda install loghub -c spyder-ide

Usage

loghub can be used to generate changelog based on milestones or on tags.

In projects where milestones are used to track a release we can use for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --milestone v3.0

In projects where milestones are used to track chunks of work but not releases, we can use tags to get the changes after the latest release, for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --since-tag v3.0.0b7

Or if loghub is used to generate old changelogs (or update changelogs), we can also use tags to limit the range , for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --since-tag v3.0.0b7 --until-tag v3.0.0

For private repos, just add the username and password arguments, for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --since-tag v3.0.0b7 --since-tag v3.0.0 --username <username> --password <password>

Or, just add the username and a password prompt will appear, for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --since-tag v3.0.0b7 --since-tag v3.0.0 --username <username>

Or generate a Github access token and use that instead, for example:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --since-tag v3.0.0b7 -until-tag v3.0.0 --token <token>

Important

Because of the Github API rate limitations it is advised to always use authentication by either access token or user and password.

Advanced Usage

Filter PR base branch

Pull requests to display can be filtered depending on the branch they were merge against (base branch):

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --branch 3.x

Filter issues/PRs by labels

To filter issues to display, we can use a regular expression:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --issue-label-regex "Type.*" --milestone v3.1

This will filter all the issues that start with Type

The same can be done with PRs

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --pr-label-regex "<some-regex>" --milestone v3.1

Group issues by label

Issues displayed can be grouped by labels:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --issue-label-group "Type-Bug" "Bugs Fixed" --issue-label-group "Type-Enhancement" "New Features" --milestone v3.1

This will result in issues being grouped in two sections with the headings Bugs Fixed and New Features respectively.

Output format

Loghub provides two formats:

  • *changelog*, which is the default and includes links to issues and PRs

  • *release*, which does not include links

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --milestone v3.1 --format release

Custom templates

Loghub uses Jinja2 templates to format the output. If the current template does not your needs, you can copy the default templates and create a new one and provide the path to it as:

loghub spyder-ide/spyder --milestone v3.1 --template <PATH_TO_TEMPLATE>

Detailed CLI arguments

usage: loghub [-h] [-m MILESTONE]
              [-ilg ISSUE_LABEL_GROUPS [ISSUE_LABEL_GROUPS ...]]
